Immune functions of C‐type lectins in medical arthropods

Insect Science, Volume 31, Issue 3, Page 652-662, June 2024.
C‐type lectins (CTLs) in mosquito vectors facilitate viral infection. Mosquito CTLs (mosGCTLs) bind to the viral envelope (E) proteins of the West Nile virus (WNV) (A), the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) (B), and the dengue virus (DENV) (c), thus enhancing viral entry into cells via membrane receptors such as mosPTP‐1. Abstract C‐type lectins (CTLs)

Competition among invasive and endemic carrion fly species in the Galapagos Islands with implications for biological control risk assessment

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 409-418, May 2024.
Introduced fly dominance: The Galapagos necrobiome is dominated by introduced carrion flies, with Peckia chrysostoma as the most abundant species, outcompeting native and endemic species. Endemic fly vulnerability: Endemic and native carrion flies, like Sarothromyiops dasycnemis, face competition and potential displacement by introduced species ...

Pollen associated with a Texas population of blow flies‐(Diptera: Calliphoridae) highlights underappreciated aspects of their biology

Ecological Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 215-224, April 2024.
Although some blow flies (Diptera: Calliphoridae) pollinate several crops and can digest pollen, it is uncertain if pollen collection by blow flies is a common strategy for protein acquisition. We surveyed pollen in blow fly guts to determine whether they (a) consume pollen, and if so, what types; (b) exhibit species‐specific pollen use and (c ...
